Various WLL questions. Was West London Line - new station operating!

The italics in the timetable mean that the 19:22 is a connecting
service. The train is shown as leaving Willesden at 20:08 arriving at
Clapham Jcn at 20:28.
What's happened to this station; has it been dropped from the plans?
When is Shepherds Bush, or whatever it's going to be called, due to
open?
What about the H+C line station?
Does any trace remain of the Shepherds Bush station on the old Addison
Road - Hammersmith Grove Road - Richmond route?
When was the GWR Victoria - Uxbridge service withdrawn, and which
Uxbridge station did it serve?
Why did it take so long to get a proper passenger service restored on
the line after the war? There seemed to be plenty of demand forit when
it was done.
Some years ago a very short length of new platform edge slabs was laid
at Chelsea and Fulham station; does anybody know why this was done? I
can't see any reason why staff would need to alight from a train there.
On the East side of the line, just South od North Pole Junction, there
are two low metal (cast iron?) boxes, less than a metre high, which are
quite ornate. They look old, are they part of the original
electrification scheme?
